Welcome Cocktails
6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
95 Country Club Rd, West Dover, VT 05356
Semi-formal or cocktail. This event is on a wooden deck, so it's ok to skip the stillettos.
Watch a stunning sunset with us in the spot where Maarten proposed. Lush green trees and mountain views await. Hors d'oeuvres and beverages will be served.

Ceremony
5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
89 Grand Summit Way, West Dover, VT 05356
Cocktail attire. The ceremony will be held on the lawn outside of the Summit Lodge, weather permitting. Ladies may wish to bring an alternate pair of shoes for walking on the lawn to their seats.
In the event of rain, the ceremony will occur in Carinthia Lodge, a three-minute drive away from Summit Lodge and where the reception will be held regardless of weather. Ceremony music lovingly provided by Andre and Robyn Nasrah, the bride's brother and sister-in-law, who also happen to be real-life rockstars. Update: Melissa's amazingly talented friend Felicity Amos will be playing piano as Robyn will be unable to attend.
Cocktail Hour
6:15 pm - 7:15 pm
1 Carinthia Ln, West Dover, VT 05356
Enjoy a cocktail and a musical playlist featuring Lebanese and Syrian violinists and musicians, a nod to Melissa's family and heritage. This venue is a three (3) minute-drive from where ceremony will be held. The time is a ball park; you can head over once the ceremony is over.
Reception

Parking for the reception is on the left when you pull into the entry driveway. We may do a popular line dance (to "Shivers" by Ed Sheeran) during the reception. Here's a link if you want to learn it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X0d0tmt4E0&t=255s

Brunch
11:30 am - 2:30 pm
25 Burchard Road, West Dover, VT 05356
Casual attire. Come as you are! Come see the house, the yard leading to the woods, and a secret trail. This is the place we hunkered down in during the pandemic and where we grew closer.
Drop by whenever you can between these times. Food and beverages will be served. Many thanks to Jere, Doug and John for hosting!
